We started like we wanted to start; the players respected the game plan.” Meanwhile, Ouaddou has highlighted the key factor that led his side to the convincing victory over Chiefs. Goals from Tshepang Moremi, Oswin Appollis and Evidence Makgopa earned the Buccaneers a 3-0 win over the hapless Amakhosi outfit at the FNB Stadium on Saturday afternoon.“The spirit is still there, the team spirit, the fighting spirit of our team has been there for a while since the beginning of the season, and the aim to play some quality football as well is still there,” said Ouaddou.“What changed today is the efficiency in the area of truth (final third). It means that in the finishing, we were spot on.

I have to give credit to our boys. I’m really happy, I’m a proud coach, I’m proud of my boys today. That is that kind of performance that I’m expecting from them, high level and playing with high ambition,” continued the Pirates coach.OPINION:Clueless Chiefs’ season collapses in derby humiliation “We wanted to score early.

And they did it. We played against a very good team, but the fact that we scored earlier, we put them under pressure in the first half and it helped us to develop our game. “I can say that for me, it’s really a reference game. We have to build on that until the end of the season,” concluded Ouaddou.
